What Our Students Say about Rod
 I’ve been studying Tantra and yoga with Rod for over 15 years, which has profoundly transformed my life. His wisdom, compassionate teaching, and ability to connect ancient practices with modern life have empowered me to cultivate a richer, more fulfilling existence both on and off the mat. Â
Rosie
Rod’s understanding of the yoga tradition and his capacity to pass on the true depth alive in the canon of Tantra, Vedanta, and the Vedas are in a class of their own. Time and again, he delivers the most prolific teachings in the most direct way. Rod makes the complex simple, the simple applicable, and the applicable profound.
Kevin
It cannot be overstated how deep of an impact that this community and teachings have had on my personal and teaching practice. I've been able to not only gain a more embodied understanding of inner wisdom, but also able to translate some of the more subtle practices and understandings into living a life full of clarity, compassion and service. Â

What is Tantra?
Tantra offers the most comprehensive approach to yoga, methodically weaving the diverse techniques of asana, pranayama, meditation, contemplation and purposeful living into a dynamic and unified approach. Two core principles inform tantra's vision: one, life is inherently sacred and two, the right practice will help you expand beyond your limitations and see, most importantly, embody the sacred in your life. Rooted in ancient knowledge, Tantra Yoga Alchemy offers curriculum meticulously developed and refined over decades.
Tantra can be described as “the science of energy management; there is no energy in the world that is not in your body.” says Rod. “Master your body’s subtle forces, and you can be more masterful in the way you live. As a result, the stars no longer command you. You command the stars.”
